I encountered some errors when upgrading my machine to panther with a stable fink installed.

After the upgrade, sawfish stopped working. It gives this error: "error-> (error "No such structure" rep.data.tables)"

My intuition said that to fix this, maybe I should update fink. So I ran "fink selfupdate". After following the prompts (and letting it chug for a long time) it gave me a "circular dependencies" error. Now, whenever I re-run "fink selfupdate" I get this error:

--------------------------------------------------------------
I will now run the rsync command to retrieve the latest package descriptions.

I don't know how to check for circular dependencies. Does anyone know what's going on? It might be relevant that I had previously fiddled with the stable/unstable settings in /sw/etc/apt/sources.list and /sw/etc/fink.conf, but I think I set those back to how they used to be:

---sources.list--------------------------------------------------
# Default APT sources configuration for Fink

# Local package trees - packages built from source locally
# NOTE: keep this in sync with the Trees: line in /sw/etc/fink.conf
# NOTE: run 'fink scanpackages' to create Packages.gz files

#deb file:/sw/fink unstable main crypto

Any help on either the fink or sawfish problems would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Michael
